The Birth of Builder’s Reserve
Stunning Bastogne walnut inspires an ultra-limited SolidBody.
Taylor is excited to introduce its Builder’s Reserve program, in which Bob Taylor taps into the company’s private wood reserves to design a series of extra-special, ultra-limited guitars using wood that he has been accumulating over the course of 30-plus years. more

The walnut was flatsawn, and the body was made from a single piece of the beautiful wood. The top boasts our nicest walnut burl and incorporates a gorgeous pickguard made entirely of solid, genuine pearl, which was hand-inlaid into the top by guitar designer Larry Breedlove. The fretboard inlay is a mother-of-pearl gothic vine motif.

Each SolidBody features a customized chrome back panel that is laser-engraved with our Builder’s Reserve logo and its individual number in the building sequence. The guitars come with a deluxe guitar case of walnut-colored suede with black, crushed velour interior.
